Collecting and analysing cost data for complex public health trials
BACKGROUND: Current guidelines for the conduct of cost-effectiveness analysis (CEA) are mainly applicable to facility-based interventions in high-income settings.

OBJECTIVE: This paper reflects on the challenges experienced within our own work and proposes solutio…

This research shows how, in the cont…
